Evaluation of lidocaine for brachial plexus blockade in eastern box turtles (Terrapene carolina carolina)

Mones, A. B., Santangelo, S. M., Gorges, M. A., Lewbart, G. A., Gerard, M. P., & Harrison, T. M. (2022, November 13). Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia, Vol. 50, pp. 98–101.

By: A. Mones n, S. Santangelo n, M. Gorges  n, G. Lewbart n , M. Gerard n  & T. Harrison n 

author keywords: brachial plexus block; eastern box turtle; lido-caine; local anesthesia
MeSH headings : Male; Female; Animals; Lidocaine; Brachial Plexus Block / veterinary; Brachial Plexus Block / methods; Anesthetics, Local; Turtles; Cross-Over Studies; Prospective Studies
topics (OpenAlex): Veterinary Pharmacology and Anesthesia; Turtle Biology and Conservation; Veterinary Equine Medical Research
TL;DR: The technique was unreliable in producing brachial plexus motor and sensory blockade at the lidocaine doses evaluated in this study, and general anesthesia with systemic analgesia is recommended for surgical procedures involving the chelonian thoracic limb. (via Semantic Scholar)

Mones, A. B., Gorges, M. A., Santangelo, S. M., Lewbart, G. A., Harrison, T. M., & Gerard, M. P. (2021, May 17). Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia, Vol. 9, pp. 789–797.

By: A. Mones n, M. Gorges n, S. Santangelo n, G. Lewbart n , T. Harrison n  & M. Gerard n 

author keywords: brachial plexus; brachial plexus block; eastern box turtle; local anesthesia; methylene blue
MeSH headings : Animals; Brachial Plexus Block / veterinary; Cadaver; Feasibility Studies; Prospective Studies; Turtles; Ultrasonography, Interventional / veterinary
topics (OpenAlex): Turtle Biology and Conservation; Shoulder Injury and Treatment; Veterinary Equine Medical Research
TL;DR: A blind perineural injection technique for brachial plexus blockade and the distribution of three volumes of new methylene blue dye for injection in cadavers are developed and evaluated to evaluate its application and efficacy in live turtles. (via Semantic Scholar)
